performing in oakland tonight!
our friend, aj kirsch (who’s also a professional wrestler… that thar is a link to his facebook fan page), will be kicking ass tonight in oakland for a national karaoke contest semi-final round!
after winning 1st place in san francisco’s regional rock division karaoke contest, he’s singing “the way you make me feel” by michael jackson tonight for a battle to the LAS VEGAS finals.
stakes are high. he invited me along to do some back up dancing and acting. remember the girl from the video?
i’ve packed a short black dress and heels, and i’m ready to rock.
in other performance news, i have an audition on sunday for which i’m regularly rehearsing. it’s an exciting week!

while we’re on the topic of myspace…
check out travis’ most recent album from last december 2008 on his myspace here
if you haven’t heard it before, you can listen to “youth gone awry” at that link, or even buy it. we’ll ship you out a personal package with the album art and tunes!
this weekend, there’s a lot going on — i’m off to santa cruz to visit my very musical brother, tommy van vechten—whose music you should also check out—and then travis’ mother amy is having a big birthday party on saturday night. look for more blogs on sunday — there’s going to be tons of updates!
